What is the name of your state? GA
I have a 3 year contract with an institution and the contract will end in Sept 2005. My yearly salary is documented in the contract. In November I was asked about and reported sexual harrassment and discrimination in my workplace. Three weeks later I received a poor evaluation (the year before my evaluation was glowing), and no cost of living raise. Two weeks later they called me in to say that "things weren't working out" and that I could have 30 days, resign or be terminated. I have taken the 30 days, but it is clear that they want me gone. The contract seems to be preventing them from terminating me, and I believe that they are willing to negotiate a severance package. I don't want to be taken advantage of. What would be reasonable to ask for in a negotiation?
